I think there might be better ways for both sides to emerge from the opening as opposed to how this came about.
Let's say you have a chess engine which plays against itself without an opening book and this engine would calculate the best move and have like 1 week to think for every single move. Add to this that it is an extremely strong engine on an ultra awesome cool and fast high performance super computer. Which opening would that result in? Which would be the first move? And the second? And the third? And so on...
